Unknown Realm: The Siege Perilous is a new 8-bit fantasy role-playing game for PC and C64 inspired by the classic RPGs of the 80's.
Alive World:
- Open world with lots of secret locations to discover.
- 64 different day, night, and seasonal monsters.
- Landscape reacts to the choices you make. Locations, characters, and game world will be impacted by your decisions, and your actions have real consequences.
- Dual-mode exploration using either overworld view or zoomed in location view.
- Traveling NPCs and settlements - stumble upon a gypsy caravan, traveling merchants or bandit encampments!
Fast-Paced, Fun-Focused Combat:
- Instead of spending 80% of your time grinding away in combat and only 20% of your time doing what we consider the fun stuff about RPGs, we have flipped that around so there won't be any 10 minute monster battles going on here.
- Simple Attack + direction targeting keeps you in the action instead of an interface.
- Dedicated hot key for quick primary/secondary weapons toggle.
- Turn-based, but feels like real-time.
- Attack monsters in overworld view as well as zoomed in view.
Interesting NPCs:
Just because our NPCs have 8-bit brains doesn't mean they have to be dummies.
- Find NPC or animal companions to join your cause.
- Hire mercenaries to aid you on those really dangerous quests.
- NPCs might strike up a conversation with you or blurt out for you to get lost.
- NPCs can treat you differently based on their mood or how well they know you, or react to what they see you do or hear you say.
- NPCs may travel between locations in the game.
- Some monsters might even talk with you, if you happen to speak their language!
Charming Mini-Games:
Even warriors need to unwind and play some games now and again.
- Try your luck at the rat races as you bet on which critter gets the cheese first.
- Play some dice games with the local tavern folk.
- Turn-based lock picking has never been more fun!
- Use your wit to open the magically locked riddle chests.
- Hungry? Try hunting or our fishing mini-game to catch your own food.
